Robert Pattinson has not been seen since his world was ripped apart after discovering girlfriend Kristen Stewart cheated on him.

And now it has been claimed that the English actor is hiding out at Reese Witherspoon's vacation house.

The Twilight star, 26, went to ground last week after Kristen sensationally apologised for having a fling with director Rupert Sanders, who she worked with on Snow White and the Huntsman.

In hiding: The claims are made in the new issue of Us Weekly. The actor has gone to ground since last week's shock news that girlfriend Kristen Stewart cheated

Us Weekly, which published the shocking pictures of the cheating pair together last week, now claims to have tracked him down to his Water For Elephant co-star's tranquil $7million ranch in Ojai, California.

Previous reports had claimed a U-Haul truck was spotted outside the Los Angeles home he shared with Stewart, 22, and that he had jetted to London to spend time with friends.

But it seems that he may have decided to seek refuge with Reese, 36, who apparently came to the rescue and offered up the luxurious estate.

The pregnant actress wed husband Jim Toth in March 2011 at the rustic chic estate.

A source told the magazine he is 'a total mess. He's questioning everything.'

Meanwhile his former love is said to be 'inconsolable,' and has been trying to get in touch with a string texts and phone calls.

An insider said: 'She's dying to save the relationship. It's the only thing she cares about.'

But another source said Robert, who fell his on-screen lover nearly five years ago, 'doesn't know what to do.'

Meanwhile Sanders is holding onto the hope he can salvage his marriage, and is still wearing his wedding ring after pictures of the director kissing Kristen Stewart emerged.

And now Robert Pattinson is said to want to meet Sander's wife Liberty Ross to find out if their tryst was a 'momentary indiscretion' or if it had gone on for months, according to reports.

A source told The Daily Mirror today: 'He needs to know for his own peace of mind if theirs was just a fleeting moment. He hopes Liberty can help him find the answers to he so desperately craves.'

Liberty, 33, and Sanders,41, have been married for 10 years and have two daughters together.

The actress and model has remained silent on her husband's liaison with her Snow White and The Huntsmen co-star.

Rupert was pictured looked troubled on Monday as he emerged from his home in Los Angeles and crucially he was still wearing his wedding ring.

According to the Mirror Kristen dumped the director hours after she was snapped with him.

A friend told the paper: 'Kristen had wanted to end their closeness that day but her desires and her emotions got the better of her.'

'She had no intention of leaving Robert and Rupert has never mentioned walking away from his family.'

In the wake of the news both Kristen and Rupert were quick to make public statements saying that their tryst had been a mistake.

Kristen said: ' This momentary indiscretion has jeopardised the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry.'

While Sanders told People magazine: 'I am utterly distraught about the pain I have caused my family. My beautiful wife and heavenly children are all I have in this world. I love them with all my heart. I am praying that we can get through this together.'

MailOnline has contacted Pattinson and Witherspoon's representatives and awaits comment.
